Chris HoosonとDavid Buxtonのユニットdakota suiteと、SCHOLEより作品を発表するフランス人作曲家・ピアニストのQuentin Sirjacq による共作アルバムをSCHOLEよりリリースします。これまで数多くの作品を発表してきているdakota suiteですが、その中でChrisが一貫して表現してきた悲壮美や人生の過酷さをリアルに感じさせる哲学、妻(Johanna)への愛情はそのままに、静寂や、穏やかな時間に捧げる音楽を探求することに重きを置いた作品です。Quentin Sirjacqは作曲、ピアノ演奏、楽曲アレンジを担当しています。ギター、ベース、ドラム、クラリネット、トランペット、フルート、サックス、トロンボーンなど多様な楽器が登場し、楽曲の持つ世界観を見事に表現しています。インストの楽曲と、必要とされる物語を時折語るボーカルが入った楽曲がバランスよく折り込まれています。意識的に沈んだ精神状態から浮かび上がるために書かれたラブソングや穏やかな時間のために書かれた楽曲とが合わさる、悲愁を描き続けた従来のダコタスイーツの象徴的な楽曲とは一線を画すアプローチです。
ジャジーなリズム、クラシックやアンビエントの要素が織り交ざりつつも、シンセサイザーやエレクトリックギターなどが登場する、これまでの両アーティストが見せてきたポストクラシカルなスタイルを踏襲した作品です。

    Pianist/composer/multi-instrumentist Quentin Sirjacq was born in Paris in 1978. His eclectic musical interests keep him active as an improviser, a new music performer, and a composer of music for film, theater and radio. He studied at the Royal Conservatory in The Hague (Netherlands) between 1999 and 2004, where he completed an M.A. in Piano. While in the Netherlands, he played in a number of groups, he also worked with the bigband Tetzépi , Collison Palace and the Royal Conservatory Symphony Orchestra, and performed in such prestigious halls as the Bimhuis, Ijsbreker and Beurs van Berlage, in addition to appearing at various European festivals. He met Fred Frith in Amsterdam's avant-garde music circuit and played with him several times, which lead to his enrollment at Mills College, CA to study composition. While at Mills, he has performed the music of F. Rzewski, J. Tenney and F. Frith, among others, and premiered a new work by José Maceda with virtuoso percussionist William Winant. This experience has allowed him to expand his relationship with the piano and his approach of music between traditions and experimentation. Since his debut album "La chambre claire" (2009), he has worked and performed regularly with Dakota suite (Chris Hooson and David Buxton), and has started a collaboration with Akira Kosemura and Shin Kikuchi for japanese label Schole records which lead him to release several albums on this label as well as being invited to perform in solo in Japan. He composed often for radio, films, or stage....
